Twenty Minutes or Twenty Days?

Which is the best course? I love to knit. I hate to sew the darned things together. Some knitters hate the sewing together so badly they hire someone else to do it for them.

But, which is the better course? Spend twenty minutes seaming up the anklewarmers after I've finished the knitting part, OR, let the unsewn anklewarmer nag at me for twenty days while I keep postponing and procrastinating?

CHAMELEON SCARF DIRECTIONS

The predominate shade of the two-color Chameleon Scarf depends on which side you are looking at, and the color of the fringe depends on which end is showing. The Chameleon uses two contrasting colors and is a knit stitch throughout.

Use two skeins of about 175 yards each, an appropriate weight for size 8-9 circular needles.

Color A: Cast on (not long-tail) 225-250 stitches. Knit one row.

Color B: Switch to other end of circular needle. Leave 12 inches for fringe. Knit two rows.

Color A: Switch to other end of circular needle. Leave 24 inches for fringe, Knit two rows.

Color B: Switch to other end of circular needle. Leave 24 inches for fringe. Knit two rows.

Repeat, alternating colors until desirable width is reached. With Color A, knit one row. Bind off. Leave 12 inches for fringe.

Cut loops, tie fringe pieces snuggly together. If work has become loose, tighten up fringe lengths before tying together. Trim length as desired.
